Laughter is like changing a baby's diaper. It doesn't permanently
solve any problems, but it makes things more acceptable for a while.
-Unknown
If one feels the need of something grand, something infinite,
something that makes one feel aware of God, one need not go far to
find it. I think that I see something deeper, more infinite, more
eternal than the ocean in the expression of the eyes of a little baby
when it wakes in the morning and coos or laughs because it sees the
sun shining on its cradle.
-Vincent van Gogh
Mothers are instinctive philosophers.
-Harriet Beecher Stowe
The strength of motherhood is greater than natural laws.

Jo March: I find it poor logic to say that because women are good,
women should vote. Men do not vote because they are good; they vote
because they are male, and women should vote, not because we are
angels and men are animals, but because we are human beings and
citizens of this country.
Mr. Mayer: You should have been a lawyer, Miss March.
Jo March: I should have been a great many things, Mr. Mayer.
I should have been a great many things.
-from Little Women
Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself, I am
large, I contain multitudes.
-Walt Whitman
She knew it was a big girl world,
but sometimes it felt really good
when she allowed herself some of the simple pleasures
of just being small.
-Jodi Hills
a mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world.
it knows no law, no pity, it dates all things and
crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.
-Agatha Christie

She woke each morning with a glow of hope,
not because a new dream had been born,
but knowing the one she carried
inside her heart would last.

is on its knees.

The heart is a strong shore and the ocean has many moods.
-Mark Nepo
A babe in the house is a wellspring of pleasure, a messenger of peace
and love, a resting place for innocence on earth, a link between
angels and men.
